I think we got 355 calls last year. But we'll go a week without anything and then have a day with 20+ calls.

It's evaluated quarterly, but if you're missing a ton because of work or family issues you get some slack. 10% really isn't difficult, considering I'm available about 8 hours a day.

Nice work. Looks like you got a good clean flush. Should be good for another 100K now!

I like how you frame mounted the filter. I had mine under the hood and it was a bit of a pain to unscrew the filter.

So about 3 per month. That shouldn't be too hard to do, especially if you are rescuing cats and holding peoples hair back when they are nauseous.

I'd like to do at least 4-5 a month, if not more. Mostly car crashes, though.

sure hope so... when i cut that filter open in 500 miles well find out...

ty.. i thought about doing the engine bay one.. but i decided against it for a couple reasons... restricted access to the CAC boot... harder to access the AC fitting... and didnt want a mess of it dripping down on stuff under it when id have to change it... with it on the frame... drain pan.. spin it off and all set... minimal clean up...

instructions said to mount it on its side.. but figure vertically itll get full use of the filter instead of just half of it.. if i run into a problem of rocks beating on it ill just make an off road shield plate to protect it.. lol

Car crashes huh. Those can be very interesting. Probably be mostly drunk drivers.
